Here's my letter to Leahy (also copied to the entire Judicial Committee.)

Dear Senator Leahy:

As Chairman of the Judicial Committee, you are obstructing the confirmation process of President Bush's nominations. I find this reprehensible and irresponsible and I urge you to put your partisan bias aside and act in the best interests of all Americans.

Also stop wasting time holding hearings on Military Tribunals. Americans approve of the job being done by AG John Ashcroft and his handling of Terrorists by almost 70% according to the latest polls.

You are creating the impression that America is divided on this issue and that can only help those terrorist organizations we are trying to identify and destroy.

Americans need to stand together now for our national war effort and personal security. You are creating the impression that Democrats are more concerned about the rights of foreign terrorists than the lives of their fellow Americans.

Good letter. Not that they don't know all this. But Rats always push to see what they can get away with. We need to push back harder. If 10% of those who read FR took the time to call or write, as you did, Leahy's staff would be in shock.Conservatives have done this in the past. Dems tried to kill home schooling in the house and got scorched so bad hey haven't brought the subject up again. Reagan slashed taxes across the board and Dems played dead. Democrats are not as stupid as we think. They do listen. Not that they change. But they will hide out for a while and let us do our thing.
